le plurali
Le plurali is a feminist, independent, intersectional, curious publishing house.
Le plurali publishes non-fiction and fiction books, written by women and people who live marginalized identities. We hace an eye for unpublished manuscripts, translate and recirculate books that you cannot find in Italy, offer you guides to orient yourself among the feminist galaxies.
Our symbol is the stain: unique and original, sometimes stains are born by chance and then network with other stains and become signs, syllables, words and stories that you cannot do without.
feminist
A feminist and transfeminist publishing house, le plurali believes and invests in the ideas and talent of women and people who live marginalized identities, as a place where a "radical perspective from which to look, create, imagine alternatives and new worlds" is possible, quoting bell hooks. And this choice does not only concern the authorial voices, but also the people with whom we work and collaborate. We are committed to building a network of sisterhood and creating a safe and welcoming space in which to work and live.
independent
Guided by our intellect and intuition, we think independently. We carefully choose each book we publish and follow every project in its smallest details, from the very beginning until the end. We collaborate with a small Umbrian printing house that uses renewable energy to print on ecological quality paper. We treat our books as if they were jewels and our ebooks are produced following accessibility parameters.
intersectional
We identify ourselves in an intersectional and intergenerational feminism, which takes into account the complexity of the different experiences and identities we go through. We adopt a broad language that values, that listens and does not judge, trying to involve the communities of reference in the choice of words, aware of their transformative power. Wherever possible, for this very reason, we adopt the overextended feminine gender (in Italian), not because it addresses only women or speaks only about women, but as a revolutionary exercise to break down stereotypes and prejudices.
curious
We look into the future. We are always ready to read new stories, listen to different points of view, dive into unexpected literary genres and publish emerging or rediscovered authors. We want to explore and make known the different walks of feminism, convinced that plurality is a wealth. We are aware that the deconstruction of stereotypes is a journey, a path of training and an approach to the world around us, based on curiosity and listening.
